It's quite appropriate, isn't it? To finally see a birth happen in one place where life starts for almost every sim. Thank you for your videos, they're always such a blast to watch!
I didn't think that the CAS experiments could even get weirder
Lmfao I love how Mr Humble walks in just after the impregnation happened and he just drops the gift and gets the hell out of there
He has a lot of presents to deliver lol. Busier than Santa Claus.
The way my jaw dropped when the CAS sim turned into the alien baby.
The child room decor paired up with the microwaves though 😂😂 looks concerning 😂
OMGWTF-Microwave? 👀
"By default the Grim Reaper gets you pregnant with twins"
Oh... okay, Sim 2 devs, I... I'll keep going this way, far away.
Soooo does this imply Nervous has a twin???
@@peachymunmagenta Technically yes, in the game data there are two nervous subjects, tho one of them is "beta" and hidden
The baby outside the window: Møther why hàth you abandonêd me
The pregnancy jingle is now ingrained in my brain
the grim reaper is the standard father with these pregnancies? I think this is how we got Nervous. I think they were testing something with Olive and loved this sm they decided to integrate to the story
I thought he was the most common father at first because Julien kept getting pregnant with the Grim Reaper, but later a lot of Sims also got pregnant with the Pollination Technician, and less often with other Sims on the same lot, so I think it varies a bit but is usually one or the other. Yeah, I definitely think they got the idea for Olive's pregnancy while testing out the Pollination Technician pregnancies since they both happen in Strangetown.
I love these experiment videos. I imagine that the game just doesn't know what to do with babies born on the CAS lot and just deletes them.
Oh my god, that space station lot is so nostalgic! I downloaded and used that exact lot a long time ago, back in like 2008.
I'd say it doesn't recognise what they are.
It looks like part of the simulation is still present in the CAS mode, while another part is gone.
Kinda like a dummy lot that doesn't truly exist.
So the game probably expectes a list of household sims to be on the lot but gets absolutely confused when it other sims somehow appear (the bartenders, babies being born) and has absolutely no idea how to comprehend that.
It probably doesn't save them because it only saves sims that are part of the household, but why it clears/saves the pregnancy is beyond me but then again.. this whole situation is just strange.
Yeah, it weirdly seems to remove the pregnancy tokens from Sims but can't keep track of babies being born. But the only reason most of those babies outside CAS were born (like Sarah Ottomas,) was because of the story progression mod, and the bartenders were treated like inactive Sims too by the mod so the babies were sent somewhere but you could still see the baby models on the lot (at least with that one set of twins,) so I think the mod was probably doing most of the work there and it just can't work through CAS as it wasn't designed to. Maybe it didn't know where to send the babies to (although the game seemed to recognise that the lot was located in the Test Island neighbourhood so... Yeah it's just weird in general lol.)
@@CalipersandTongs I believe CAS creates a dummy lot for each neighborhood when you are in CAS, when you create Sims (And then remove them), it adjusts the character data files for them in the core neighborhood.
Your ideas seem impossible but you've proven to me that nothing is impossible and you can really do anything in the Sims 2!
This person deserves like 400k views per video.
That is what I expect from this person
Aw thank you. I think a lot of my videos are a bit niche and long (a lot of sims videos are about 15 minutes I notice,) and The Sims 2 attracts less attention on CZcams than The Sims 4, so it's harder to get those sorts of viewcounts I think. (My commentary is a bit awkward too lol, and things like that effect how your videos are promoted.)
I LOVE how the created Sim in cas reacts to other Sims doing stuff! It's fascinating :"DD I love your videos so much! I'm going to catch up with your gameplay videos ASAP, too
Also, the lady's gibberish name, "yry", looks like a Russian word "угу", which means "yeah", and I was like- "oh! Cyrillic keyboard! i wonder where they are from" xd
Hah I was basically just pressing random keys quickly to get a name so I could save the household.
This is just my theory; One answer I can think of for the "Alien face swap out" case is; When you had that one Sim up, the one who received the alien's face, that Sim is in the process of being created, the file has yet to be finalized. Whereas Sims born in-game or generated in-game by other means outside of CAS, their files are created on the spot. The baby being born just eats up the Sim's file being created, and the Sim itself, as what it looks like from there. Again, that's just my guess, there could be many reasons why this could be happening, however.
It makes me wonder now if the Sims didn't keep disappearing after the birth and I saved them, if they would have had remnants of the baby's data but it seemed like the face swap only lasted for a moment anyway.
I think most likely whatever happens in CAS doesn't get saved, the files for the sims you created only get created when you save and leave CAS. The fact that CAS happens in a lot is more of a set dressing. The alien face showing up on the CAS sim is also a symptom of this because both the CAS randomizer and the baby creation code are the same, that's why "rolling the pacifier" was the fix for the firstborn syndrome before doing it on the batbox (and now we have LD's RPC which fixes the randomizer properly).
Im obsessed with these...
Try woohoo or first kiss next time...
I was thinking about ur Blightgate series and u should try to see what type of coruption will be caused when Vampire takes blood from Mrs Crumplebottom
I think first kiss might be possible (maybe with ACR or something if it works in CAS,) mostly the Sims just fight lol but if I can get some Sims with more nice points it might work out. I think the memories still won't be saved though (besides the CAS memories.)
I've heard that making Mrs Crumplebottom into a vampire can mess with the game so that would be interesting. I didn't really mess with her lifestates when I was playing with her before just age. My headcannon for her is that she's a witch though.
@@CalipersandTongs Sorry i didnt wanted to change ur lore 😭but myb she can be witch that use vampire powers, some type of hybrid.
It does sound like it would be a lot of fun. I might do a video at some point where I send her to a community lot and make her a vampire, and maybe test some of the other lifestates, than change her to a witch as the final form.
I aspire to have problem solving skills like you
When she just started showing the freezing sim the cow plushie I nearly died of laughter
This was hilarious, thank you very much!! >
this was a really interesting video im glad you were even able to get it to work at all
Love your videos!! Can’t wait to see more :)
o yeah a new calipers and tongs vid
cant wait to see what chaos u create this time
Brilliant! I like your hacked objects. A BV housekeeper spawner could be useful.
I’m crying from the footage you’ve made instead of non-recorded game 😂 I wonder how far you can go with these experiments
I thought you’ve already showed us EVERYTHING but you keep surprising us
Looking forward to the next part
These are my favorite videos on the internet lol
you should be able to do even more... waiting for the next experiment, that's great
absolutely magical
Love these videos so much ❤️
The way the CAS sim turns into the baby! XXD
i love the idea of a butler in cas
😆😆😆
Interesting experiment. I have a question. When else does "The newborns have been sent home." (on 19:09) message appear in the game? Because it looks like a message that could appear if the sim gave birth in the hospital. And the hospitals didn't appear in the release version of the game.
It's a story progression feature.
Yeah it's just part of the story progression mod not that interesting sadly lol. I don't know if they ever got as far as developing the actual hospital side of things? But I might have missed something in the game files. I just noticed the unused strings for phone calls for the ambulances and things like that while looking before.
@@CalipersandTongs Some hidden messages saved on TCRF, in Unused actions section. For example this message about nanny and ambulance: "An ambulance has arrived on your lot. The nanny can stay overnight, but you will be charged for the extra hours. Would you like the nanny to stay overnight?".
@@CalipersandTongs I also read that Criss Hatch found that the ambulance in the game were 95% complete. This was written about on the website The Sims Creative Club, on forum thread "История разработки Симс 2", page , post №11:
"As for what was discarded (or rather, " muffled"), a little less than everything was restored and implemented by Chris Hetch in his "Angels and Nurses" add-on (as his "baby" version was called), who was one of the few modders who honestly admitted that he took everything out of the base game and only adapted it to "Mansions and Gardens". He was modest, of course, as he did a colossal job and, by the way, the way he described how he saw the "ambulance" and "hospital delivery" roughly match my vague recollection (he insisted that it was 95% complete)."
"Что касается того, что было вырезано (вернее - "заглушено"), то чуть менее, чем всё было восстановлено и реализовано Крисом Хетчем в его дополнении "Ангелы и Медсёстры" (так назывался его "детский" вариант), который был одним из немногих мододелов, который честно признался, что повытаскивал всё из базовой игры и лишь адаптировал это к "Садам и Особнякам". Он, конечно, поскромничал, так как проделал работу колоссальную и, кстати, то, как он описывал, в каком виде ему предстала "скорая помощь" и "роды в больнице" примерно соответствует моим смутным воспоминаниям (он настаивал на 95 процентной готовности)."
You'll find a lot of interesting discarded content in this thread from The Sims 2 and The Sims Stories.
Oh, that's cool. I haven't tried his hospital mod but I wanted to at some point.
Wtf how does your Channel only have 4k subs because this is truly enjoyable
I think it's just very niche content lol (and most of my videos are a bit longer than the average 15-25-minutes,) but thank you. The CAS videos are my favourite when I can actually get them working (slightly frustrating troubleshooting stuff though lol.)
Nah you put your whole game at risk sometimes its great
Hi, I found your channel recently and have been watching a lot of your experiment videos, I was wondering if you’ve made a video on experimenting with the Hula Zombie or Penguin or even the original Big Boss scenario? I’m not sure if those would be too broken to try though. Sorry if you’ve already done those videos and I didn’t see them, but I love your content :)
I'm planning on making a video including the Hula Zombie and Penguin eventually, and I really wanted to do one on the big boss scenario and was thinking about that the other day coincidentally, but I'm not sure how to get it to work (I've only recently started looking into that though.) There were a couple of threads on modthesims I found where someone said that Chris Hatch got it to work, and they were trying to do the same. They uploaded a video of it and some screenshots, but they've all been removed since then as this was back in 2013-2014 and both threads got locked in the end:
modthesims.info/showthread.php?t=518950
modthesims.info/m/showthread.php?t=513237
This was insanely funny.
This is amazing,
I missed your videos so much! I think it would be so cool if you could create a Discord server so we could chat about corruption and share our experiments in the game! 😁
Thanks :) Someone else did ask about that a while ago but I've never managed a discord server before, and the idea makes me a bit anxious (I don't really use discord much either.) There is another CZcamsr Moni who makes corruption videos and has a discord server though.
Have you tried adopting babies after those births? Maybe they are there
I didn't try that, but I just assumed the game generates new babies and children from scratch unless some of the hood children have been taken away by the social worker. Might be worth looking though just in case.
@@CalipersandTongs yeah, I thought that they might get there the same way as taken away kids))
@@CalipersandTongs other than that - wanna say that I love watching your videos!
Breaking the game is so entertaining
I love those experiments in the game! I never knew it was possible to mess with CAS this way.
I saw the video about the Crumplebottom and the wishing well and I was wandering what would happen if you kill the Grim Reaper. Will the game generate a new one or it will simply crash?
Also, I wonder if it is possible to become a supernatural in CAS. I don't know if there are any mods that could make this doable.
The Grim Reaper dying is on my list of videos I want to make so I'll definitely be looking at that at some point, but I think it will probably just break the game (or the death animation part of the game) lol.
Some supernatural traits can be created in CAS if you use the debugging tool. You can get the alien eyes and skintone and the zombie skintone, but I don't think they have any of the other zombie traits. I can't remember but I think you might be able to get the PlantSim eye colour in CAS too but not the skintone. I think PlantSims, werewolfs and vampires all use overlays instead of skintones so they don't appear in CAS. There are some werewolf type outfits though from what I remember, and you can also make Sims that look like servos (sort of. I think their heads get a bit broken but can't remember,) but none of these Sims have their occult behaviour/skills etc.
just like i remember
Wait, have you checked in where the object npcs are stored? And ghosts? The game might have sent these babies to some weird place like this, if some of them were saved, they might be there
I did look through the place where the global NPC's and ghosts were stored with at least some of the births and didn't notice any new Sims there. Might check again after moving some of the CAS lots to the hood.
@@CalipersandTongs they could have been sent to a completely random location because this game does that sometimes x)
I'm not sure if it'd be a lot of looking because my simpe doesn't work for some reason so I never used it, but checking everywhere you can might be the only option to find them, if they even are still in the game :,V
I have both the story progression mod and the one that keeps your sims off the lot to match up when they would have been getting home from a community lot, and I think there's a conflict, because its always like 3 days it says they're away. I made an unemployment office in my game, sent my sim to get a job, had them come home, only to get fired because they weren't home for 3 days and therefore didn't go to work. Really annoyed me lol
Yeah, I haven't played with the story progression mod for normal gameplay yet, but I think it syncs time on all lots like in The Sims 3, so it probably conflicts with the other mod and makes it redundant as time should progress on all lots. I just forget to remove it every time I record lol.
Part of the issue might be that baby sims aren't an option in cas? Like... you can only make toddlers
They're usually a very specific age group that normally can only be experienced through regular gameplay
Are you sure nothing shows up in simpe?
I think it's setting some flags that another sim gets moved in with them, just incorrectly... even though it shows no one else in the family thumbnail, because it's not expecting baby sims to exist on first move in
I mean, something has to be causing the game to crash lol
I looked at the CAS lot in SimPE later and there were references to Sim relationships but and I placed the lot back into the test hood but there was nothing unusual about it and no way to access any Sims. Also couldn't see any sign of the Sims in the neighbourhood package file. The crashing was interesting though, there was clearly something there causing issues.
I know genetics in CAS and the system for making babies are connected somehow because you can fix the first born syndrome glitch by rolling the pacifier in CAS or using the make a child feature in CAS and mixing two Sims genetics, but I don't understand the specifics.
I wonder - do you by any chance have some shreds of data of those missing babies? Especially Ottomas and Crittur ones.
Overall I feel like CAS is Sims version of Cronus with all that missing babies stuff. They definietly weren't "devoured" by it :P
I couldn't find any signs of them after leaving CAS or in SimPE, and I think their character files weren't created and saved, so I think they're probably gone. But sometimes when character files get deleted from the game parts of the data are not removed and end up merged with other Sims (like what happened with many Sims in my Blightgate neighbourhood before.)
Hmm actually there does seem to be some references to 4 Sims on the CAS lot itself, but just relationships between unknown Sims, so I might try moving that version of the lot to the neighbourhood later and having a look but without the DNA etc I don't think much will happen. There are also some references in an older version of CAS I made for other videos with Sim DNA and Sim descriptions. I guess that would be from when I was saving Sims on the lot while in the neighbourhood and moving them in though before moving the lot to the game files.
Am a biginner but with the tutorials bro am like i started years back my friends must see tNice tutorials too thumps up
This is just Create a Sim as god(s) intended 🤷♀
Why the hell have I got 10 ads in less than 10 minutes? This is abusive.
Hey I'm sorry about that I have no idea why that is happening because there are only 4 ad spots in the whole video and CZcams says that not every viewer is shown every ad. But I know the default settings will generally have 10-20 ads randomly placed so maybe CZcams is ignoring that I removed most of them or something.
@@CalipersandTongs I see. Thank you for the reply.
